..... ;s length price cannot also be determined in this case as per section 92-C of the IT Act, 1961. However, the CIT after perusing the explanation filed by the assessee held that the same was not acceptable and verification is needed as to whether the transaction done is at arm's length price. Therefore, the CIT set aside the assessment made on 17/12/2009 and directed the AO to do the assessment afresh after referring these transactions to the TPO as per the provisions of section 92C for determining the arm's length price. 4.
